TO ADVERTISERS
The Free Press Recognized by Geo. p.
ROwell h Co., as Ahead as an
Advertising Medium.

The well known advertising agency of
Geo. z. .Rowell d Co. of New York City, have
issued an annual Newspaper Directory for
thirty years or more, aud these publications
have been generally recognized a. authority
as 10 the matter Of newspaper circulation.
In the regular issues Of the Directory they
have included all the newspapers published
in the United States and Canada. Quite
recently. however, they have issued con-
densed list. II gives only tho best newspa-
pers I'D advertising mediums, and hence is
practically better, because more convenient,
than their larger Directory. Four-ffths of
the newspapers of the United States are
practically counted out" by intelligent ad-
vertisers, who only want to know the BEST
Hence the value of the work under notice.
The publishers in the preface we'll say:
1T Sits the wheat from the chaf. 1t di-
rects the attention of an advertiser toward
papers which he should and ought to use,
and tends to intercept portion OF that pa
tronage which goes to publications which
cost greatly in excess of any power to bene-
fit which they possess. 1t takes the general
ground, that the best is the cheapest"
We need scarcely say that on this plan,
the FREE Press is given by this book tsee
page 1889 as the advertising medium of San
Marcos and Hays county, it being the only
one on the list. We respectfully invite the
attention of advertisers, both at home and
abroad, to this fact.

affiliations OF prohibitionists utterly un-
disturbed. And we ask nothing from any
political party except the privilege Of our
convictions upon this subject, undisturbed
by forfeiture Of party fealtY.
Z. That as the anti-prohibidonists exr
pressed during the canvass 0 willingness
and desire TO obliternte the ontiro saloon
system, we express ourselves a. ready At al
times to co-opente with them heartily N
securing such happy contamination. and
trust that they will call upon us speedily for
such help. A union Of work In this direc-
ton will 20 far towards softening the
unnecessary asperities of the late campaign.
8, That as during the late campaign We
overy where conceded as well as claimed the
right Of private Judgment, we now put our
selves on record as opposed to all boycot-
ting in trade md all proscription In politics
on account of difference Of opinion con-
cerning prohibition. We approve the fol-
lowing declaration Of Thomas jefferson
"rhat differences of opinion should arise
among men, ON politics, on religion. and on
every other topic Of human inquiry, and
that these should be freely expi sssed in 0
country where all our faculties are free is to
be expected. But these valuable privileges

turb the harmony Of social intercourse aud
to lessen the tolerance Of opinion"
8. We recommend that the war on the
saloon should be necessarily maintained.
Let not the agitation die. Local option yet
remains. Disseminate literature. Educate
the popular mind. Where there IL reason-
able hope Of victory, inaugurnte local opr
tion contests in precinct and county.
10. Finally, while we have ro apology to
offer to any one for being prohibitionists.
and pretend to no repentance which We do
not feel (since we yet glory in our convic-
tions) yet we earnestly recommend TO our
friends that they suffer all asperities, ali
bitterness and all feuds liz any) engendered
In the heat Of battle to subside and pass
away.
Let us cultivate rather the things which
make for peace.
Such disposition we believe to be com-
patible with the highest. purest and most
unswerving devotion to the great principles
we have advocated and yet fondly cherish,
